Joey Lock Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 Well ive noticed that there has been 2 Adverts including Thunderbirds charecthers. The Specsavers where his being chased by the Evil dude and he says "Should have gone to specsavers, Virgil" "FAB" And the Drench Water : Brains Advert What do you think? Hopefully it wont be a Cartoon Series... Quote
Pencoin Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 i noticed that aswell i presumed the advertising ocmpany had purchased the dolls and are using thme to make the adverts? it remains a mystery Quote
Brainbox Posted June 2, 2008 Posted June 2, 2008 I shouldn't think it'll be coming back, at least not in the form we know it. I think the adverts just show what a cult thing Thunderbirds is. I mean, how many other adverts can you think of that feature 60s icons? When the new Captain Scarlet came out a few years ago, I remember reading somewhere that Gerry Anderson had said he'd quite like to do a new series of Thunderbirds in the same way. I loved the new CS, so to see TB done that way would be amazing. But that was a few years ago, and nothing seems to have come of it, so I'm not holding out too much hope. The adverts are great though, especially the Specsavers one. Oh, and the "Evil dude" is 'The Hood'. Quote
